JULIA MANZINI-ALARY

Hi, I'm Julia, I'm a fun-loving, adventure-seeking homebody. I'm always down to try new foods, even if I'm lactose intolerant. You'll find me often around animals watching bad reality TV and sometimes planning my next trip or climbing something. As a therapist, I prioritize autonomy, flexibility and comfort. I hold space for lightness and humour, as well as challenging feelings and thoughts. I always say, there is no pressure to show up to therapy other than exactly how you are in that moment.
